Tubes for ink pumps are assembled for this specific printer (and there were changes within last years), so it may be difficult to find them somewhere else than Fujifilm (by the way, why you don't want to buy parts from them?). Which filters do you mean? Air filters in the carriage (above the...

What kind of the parts? Some of them may be pretty standard, but some others are designed for this machine and may be difficult to find...

Arizona 550 requires an installation of shims, when the heads are replaced. Also one of the calibration steps is a density balance calibrations - was it done?

I would relay on the version given by firmware, not by bulletin - sometimes newer versions of the firmware have changes, which are a result of issues/problems reported by customers. So if the firmware says 'long flush' and you can't cancel the conversion wizard or the firmware doesn't recognize...

How full is the hard drive? Try to check it with any HDD diagnostic software (like Hiren's BootCD, it contains a few good tools), maybe there are some bad sectors. Did you notice, that the machine (system) was slower than previously? Any red LED diodes are on when you look at the main boards...

I guess that another restart doesn't change anything? Playing with drivers is no so easy, as the Windows is an Embedded version, so many features are removed and it's difficult to find, what is required and missing by purpose. To enter the service mode the SDS key is required (physical service...

Could you create the log from the machine and make it available for download here? It's possible that some hints will be hidden there, I could check it. And yes, gantry encoder readers are facing two sides, it's normal.

That's pretty normal - both ends of the gantry may move separately, that's what the gantry initialization do - moves to the end and makes the gantry straight. In XT machines manual moves of the gantry should be done by two persons (one at each end) or from the middle of the gantry to keep the...

First of all - does the ink drips from one W head or both? If from both, the problem is located somewhere above heads, but under the vacuum valve from the W channel. If from one head only, search for a reason under the ink reservoir, it must be somewhere there. Degas module removes the air...

But the manual says also, that when you use the flush for cleaning, then you have to use dry swabs to remove the flush from certain places around the nozzle plates. Flush may damage the internal gasket in the head.

Are you sure, that your CMYK print is free of LcLm? Usually, it isn't - even in 100% C solid profile adds a few percents of Lc. You may check it in the RIP software, how the colour curve looks like (at least Caldera shows this information). Of course, it's possible that with such saturation...

Again - check the head alignment. All print alignments (BiDir, SiDir and ReDir) are electronic calibrations, which doesn't move the heads physically. If your head is in the wrong place, you need to correct the position first, then align the drop placement (and this is done by print alignments)...

First of all - if you have mechanical misalignment, you should use 'head adjustment', not 'print adjustment'. Head adjustment moves the head physically, print adjustment changes the parameters of the firing. SiDir is just one direction to calibrate, very often ReDir also requires changes, but...

If you have the firmware version 2.20 or higher, it's in the maintenance section of the printer firmware. Just enter it and scroll down/up. You may perform it for specific channels only (similar to purge).

Removing the white bags daily may cause the damage of the ink pouch ports, they are not intended to be used this way (even maintenance procedures were changed due to this). Move the ink in the pouch without removing it on a daily basis (this is what the procedure says), remove the pouch only...

Error 63f means "Calculated ink usage does not match the level of subtank sensor". It may happen, when: - the ink bag is empty - ink pump for this channel doesn't work (broken pump cover, damaged ink tube etc.) - "Sending adjust" procedure wasn't performed (according to the procedures it should...

Pigment size is one problem - depending on the ink system ink should be developed for specific heads (or nozzle size), but the white pigment is heavier than any other (it contains titanium). That's why white ink always likes to stratify and many printer developers add circulation system for the...

What about the Fujifilm? They should sell you QV017, that's the flush solution for Acuity.

Try to swap RFID boards between sides, it's pretty easy (but do it when the machine is shut down). If the problem stays on the left side, it's related to the RFID board, cables or inks itself. If it moves to the right side, it's the RFID board.

Of course, the pump may be weak/damaged too. Find a piece of a tube similar to the one used in the pump, disconnect the original tube, connect yours and check, if the sucking is stronger (but not on the head, try to suck few drops of the ink from any flat surface). If it is, you have a problem...
